Washington Campground Reviews

We loved the evergreen trees and ferns of this beautiful state. We found the people to be low on the friendliness scale which was disappointing.

Tall Chief Campground

Fall City, WA • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Electric/Water

We stayed at this campground for 3 nights and paid $11.12 per night as RPI members. Most sites are separated with large trees and vegetation. The campground has a pool, hot tub and sauna although we didn’t use any of them. It was very peaceful and quiet while we were there. (June/July 2024)

• Fall City and Snoqualmie: Fun little towns offering shopping and dining.
• Snoqualmie Falls: Beautiful waterfall where you can learn about hydroelectric power.

Thousand Trails Mount Vernon

Bow, WA • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Electric/Water

We stayed at this campground for two weeks and paid $0 per night as Thousand Trails members. The staff were friendly but not “southern friendly”. It would have been nice to have been greeted with some kind of acknowledgment by the two men who were in the welcome center when we entered. Most of the sites are electric/water. They have 13 full hookup sites but you have to get on a list if you want one. You can hear road noise but it wasn’t too bad at our site, G26. Some have complained about the noise from the nearby racetrack. We heard the races one night while we were there. It was loud but stopped at 11pm after fireworks. There are several restroom buildings, some have one shower and some have two showers. The restrooms with two showers require you to walk through one shower stall dressing area to get to the other one and we found that to be uncomfortable. The campground is beautiful with big trees and ferns. Some sites have views of the mountains. The lodge is nice and well maintained. (July 2024)

• San Juan Island/Friday Harbor: The ferry ride takes about an hour and is relaxing. You can stay in your car or go up to the passenger deck. The island offers many beaches, hiking trails, history, and arts/crafts.
• Mount Vernon: Charming town. We enjoyed In Good Spirits and the Food Co-op.
• North Cascades National Park: Absolutely gorgeous park with fewer crowds than other national parks. Many trails from easy to difficult.
• Whidbey Island/Langley: Langley is named the most charming small town in Washington. The whole island offers beautiful views and small towns to explore.
• Washington Park: In Anacortes, one of the few places in the world to see the earth’s mantle.

KM Resorts Diamond Point

Sequim, WA • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Full hookup

We stayed at this campground for six nights. We paid $16.49 per night as RPI members. The campground is in a beautiful area with a state park nearby, Port Townsend 30 minutes away, and Sequim 15 minutes away. The campground is in a quiet residential area and it’s walkable. There is very poor cell service in this area (1 bar LTE with Verizon) so we paid $2 per day for the campground’s WiFi. The WiFi service was very poor with more than half the time not being able to connect to it even though we were fairly close to the office. We also didn’t like to the two speed bumps at the entrance to the campground. (July 2024)

• Port Townsend, WA: We love this town! It is right on the bay and offers a cute downtown (and uptown). Don’t miss shops like the popular Fancy Feathers consignment shop.
• Lavender Festival: Sequim hosts the Lavender Festival in July which draws a big crowd. The many area lavender farms are open for tours or U-Pick.

Sol Duc RV Campground

Port Angeles, WA • ⭐️⭐️ • Electric/water

We stayed at this RV campground for six nights. We paid $32.07 per night which included an America the Beautiful pass discount. It is basically just a parking lot with electric and water hookups. There are no restrooms or showers for the RV campground (although you could walk to the primitive campground for restrooms or to the hot springs resort for restrooms and locker room style showers). The dump station is not included in your camping fee. The sites are very close together. There is no room to park your tow vehicle. You can hear kids screaming from the hot springs pool across the river from the campground. There are no nearby trails which allow dogs. Overall, the national park is beautiful and was worth a visit but the RV campground run by a private company left a lot to be desired. (July 2024)

• Hoh Rainforest: Area inside Olympic National Park. It’s very popular and you may have to wait for parking.
• Ancient Groves Nature Trail: Short trail inside Olympic National Park.
• First Beach near La Push, WA: Beautiful views. You can walk to the beach or park in a dirt parking lot overlooking the beach.
• Forks, WA: If you are a fan of the Twilight Saga then a visit to Forks is a must.
• Spruce Railroad Trail: Great paved trail which allows dogs. We recommend getting on the trail from the Camp David Jr. Rd. parking lot.

Cove RV Park

Brinnon, WA • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Full hookup

We stayed at this campground for one night and paid $58.88. The camp host, Mike, will help you to your site and tell you a little about the area. They have free loaner bikes which was a nice surprise for us. They also have some games like kid-safe axe throwing and corn hole. The campground was well maintained and was quiet except for the road noise. (July 2024)

Travel Inn Resort

Elma, WA • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Full hookup

We stayed at this campground for 9 nights and paid $11.19 per night as RPI members. Overall, the campground was quiet but you can hear road noise. The clubhouse offers a TV, puzzles, books, movies, gym, pool tables, and a nice patio area. There is a pool and a fenced in dog park. There is a Grocery Outlet next door and an Amazon locker across the street. The only thing we didn’t like was the lady who checked us in was not very friendly. (July-Aug 2024)

• Olympia, WA: The downtown area is nice with shops, restaurants and bars. We walked our dogs in the area and did some shopping.
• Satsop Business Park: See a partially built nuclear power plant which now houses several businesses.

Thousand Trails Long Beach

Seaview, WA • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Full hookup

We stayed at this campground for 14 nights and paid $0 per night as Thousand Trails members. The sites are close together and there are no “outside” sites, meaning all sites have neighbors on the sides and back. The campground was clean and well maintained. There is a trail in the campground which will get you to the Pacific Ocean in about 5 minutes. The Discovery Trail, a paved trail for biking or walking/running, is also easily accessible from the campground. The peninsula is a popular destination with weather offering a high of 60-70ºF during the summer. We had two LTE bars with Verizon. (Aug 2024)

• Astoria, OR: There are so many fun things to do in this quirky town.
• Discovery Trail: Popular with bicyclists, you can go south into Cape Disappointment State Park or north to Long Beach.
• Long Beach, WA: Very popular tourist town.
• Oysterville, WA: Small town of historic homes with beautiful gardens.
• Mt. Saint Helens: It’s a little bit of a drive but well worth it. We enjoyed WA Parks Mt. Saint Helens Interpretive Center.

Thousand Trails Crescent Bar

Quincy, WA • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Full Hookup

We stayed at this campground for 10 nights and paid $0 per night as Thousand Trails members. We had site 99 which was long but narrow. There were stairs leading from the bathrooms/hot tub/laundry area right into our site. Just a reminder: It is poor campground etiquette to walk through an occupied campsite. The campground overlooks the Columbia river. From the campground, you can access a mostly paved trail which goes right next to the river and several beaches. The campground is currently undergoing some improvements such as spreading new gravel on sites. Amenities include pool, hot tub, laundry, bathhouse, and club house with games. The new manager, Nick, was very friendly and we appreciated his help. (July 2025)

• Visit numerous areas to learn about the Mega Floods which occurred during the last Ice Age and had major geologic impact on the area.
• Crescent Bar in Quincy, WA: Resort area with golf course and access to the Columbia River.

KM Resorts Old American RV Resort

Newport, WA • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Full hookup

We stayed at this campground for 14 nights and paid $10.97 per night using our RPI membership. We were in campsite 35 and we could see the river through the trees from our site. The site was big enough for our camper and two cars. The campground was quiet and the staff were very friendly. We had great Verizon 5G cell coverage. (Aug 2025)
